    Holy shit, I’ve accidentally stumbled upon a cure for aging. I was born in 1984, yet I’m somehow only 40 years old.

      Or maybe everyone from 1998 stumbled upon the exact opposite.

        Like that dyslexic fucker who wrote 1984 in 1948 I imagine.

        Edit: it’s not even a good joke, apparently it was 1949… then again it wasnt funny if accurate either, oh well

      There was a article where the journalist asked a dozen people how old they felt, versus their actual age.

      And every single person said they felt in their heads, 10-20 years younger. Like, a 54yo said they felt more like they were 35yo.

      I’m hitting forty and I feel like I just understood what life is about, something I should have felt in my mid20s.

          In the US we call bathroom sinks sinks as well. I’ve heard basin before, I wouldn’t be confused by it, but it’s not really the standard.

          Prior to reading this I may have assumed “basin” referred to sinks that are standalone on pedestals as opposed to ones built into counter tops.
